THE OMAHA DAILY B ESTABLISHED JUN WILL COME IN FREE Action of the House Yesterday on the Sugar Schedule, DUTY HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM ALL KINDS Refined and Raw Have Now Been Placed cn an Equal Footing, REPUBLICANS AID RADICAL DEMOCRATS With Their Support the Measure is Passed by a Big Majority. COAL AND I3ON SCHEDULES TAKEN UP The Discnsslon Reveals There Are Still a Yew Rundwdl Democrats Loft in the fouse—Talk of Resubmitting the Witson Bill, Wasmixeros, Jan. 23.—The house today determined the abolition of the duty upon refined sugar, which was passed upon just before the house adjourned last nixht as an amenduient to an amendment of Mr. Robert- son of Louisiana. A way out of the confusion which existed vpon the effect of the amend- ment adooted last night was found afier a two hours' discussion of the parliamentary situation, by submitting the question to the house, as to whether the Warner amend- ment placing refined sugar on the free list, should be considered as a substitute for the Robertson amendment. This was decided aflrmatively, and then, by an overwhelming vote, in which the republicans joined with the radical democrats against the sugar men and several memoers of the ways and means committee, the substitute was adopted. With regard to the sugar schedule, there- fore, the committee of the whole has abolished the bounty and placed all sugar, both refined and raw, upon the free list. Vigorous L'rotest trom Southerners. ‘When it came to considor the coal schedule today, however, the committee fared much better, and all four of the amendments, de- signed to place o duty of from 40 to 70 cents per ton upon coal, were beaten. The debate on the conl schedule developed a great deal of feelinz among the southern members, es- pecially those from Virginia, West Virginia, fPennessce and Alabama, whose states are in- terested cither in coal or iron ore. The gen- eral impression is that the defeat of the sugar men ana of thosa who ave interested 1 retuming o duty upon coal will resuit in strengthening the movement developed on the democratic side to recommit the bill. If theiron men are defeated tomorrow, and especially if the income tax should be placed upon the billas a rider later in the weok, another strong faction on the democratic side will be added to this wovement. The republicans will also vote for the motion to recommit, aud the republicans who dare not - wote on the bill outright, bat who arve not satisfied with fvin its preseut form may send it back to the committee. This is now admitted to be the chief danger. If the bilt could be brought to a direct vote there 1s no question about its possage. . Referred to a Committee. At the opening of the house this morning, on motion of Mr. Wise, the president’s veto of thie New York and New Jersey bridge bill was referred to he committee on interstate and foreign commer A few minutes later, when the house went into committee of the whole to resume tho consideration of the tariff bill, Mr. Oates of Alabama called attention to the peculiar complication that had avisen owing to the failure of the committee to complete the consideration of the sug schedule. Tv came over as unfinished busi ress, while by the special artangement last Saturday today was set aside for the coal and iron scnedules. Some dmcuss(un followed as to the rliamentary status, and it was fin.\lly decided by unanimous consent to go ahead with the vote on the sugar schedule, and after that was disposed of to take up coal'and ivon. TPhe pendiny question was the Robertson amendment imposizie a duty on raw sugar and increusing the auty on’ vefined sugar amended by M , plucing both raw and refined > freo Jist. “The confusion cntuiled by these two incon- gruous amonduicuts had first to be straight- ened out. Mr. Dingley claimed that the ‘Warner ar ent v utterly inconsistent with the Robertson amendment and should be consi 1s 4 substitute, Mr., Robertson took issue with him, mai taining that the effect of Mr. Warn amendnient simply was to place refined sugar on the frec list, leaving 5o much of hi amendmoent as imposed o duty upon sugar below 10 Duteh stand wd unaffected. Finally the Warner amendment, as a substitute to place all raw sugar and re fined sugar on the free list, was carried 161 to B8, Talked for an Rour and a Half, “Pho debate on the polut of order consumed over an hour and a half. The chairman finally stated that the Warner amendment was voted upon as anamendment to the Rob- ptson amendment, He was now asked, he said, to ide that it should have been voted upon substitute. Heo declined to rule aud submitted the question to the house to determine whether it should be considered a substitute or amendment, Without divi- sion it was decided to treat the Warner amendment as u substitute, The commttee was then called upon to vote upon it as a substitute, its effect if adopted being to place all sl w and refined, on the freo list. The g ass of democrats and practically all the republicans voted for the proposition, only & handful of democrats, n- cluding Mr. Wiison and several others of the ways and nieans commnitice, Mr, Everetts, l‘umm.lnl the members of the Louisiana delegation vo azainst it IL was carried by & vote of 101 to B0, The con! schiedule was then taken up. The first amenduent was made by Mr. Oates of Aiabama, as follows: “Striko out of the free list freo coal, ete., and insert coal, bitwm- fnous aud shale, 40 cents per ton of twenty- eight bushels, cighty pounds to the bushel coal, slack or culls, such as will pass through a hulf inch screcn, 20 cents per ton of twenty-eight bushels, eighty pounds to the bushel.” M. Wise of Virginia followed with an amendment to the amendment, striking out 40 cont: d insevting b0 cents. Mr. McKaig of Maryland then offered a substitute pro- viding for a duty of 75 cents per ton on bituminous coul, 80 cents on coal. sluck or \(-uih\, and striking vituminous conl from the rec list, Hi's Amendment, Mr. Ihitt of Illinois offered an amend- ment to the substitute as follows: “lusert at the end of coal pavagraph, provided that if any article on the freo Hst is imported, tho product of any country which 1mposes o duty on said article exvorted from the United States, then theve shall o levied, eollected und paid upon satd imported clo tho rate of duty existing pri the pas- sage of this net.” Mr. Wi'son made the point of order that Mr. Lit's reeiprocity amendmeut was not germane and, therefore, ot in order. It was o proposition for general reciprocity ou the whole tariff bill, or rather retaiiation upon ourselves for the follies of other prople. “Thie chair sustained the point of order and AMr, Hits modified the amendment' 8o as to Festrict it 1o articies on ihe free list. Mr. Burrows, republicas, of Michigan \E 19, 1871 made the point that, as modified, the amend- ment was not germane, and the chair also sustalued the point of order. Opposed Freo Con Mr. McKaig, democrat, of Maryland was first recognized in support of his substitute. tiis constituents, he snid, were vitaily inter- ested in preserving the du . He insisted that the miner was entitled to a continuation of this protection. Mr. Brossius opposed free coal. His state produced 90,000,000 tons & year. Free coal would leave his constituents naked and de- fenseless, Wise supported the proposition to duty on coal. democrat, of Virginia advo- cated an amendment to place a duty of 40 cents on coal, i Mr. Allerson, democrat, of West Virginia said the democrats wero clected to_reform the tariff and this they would do. This was the time to measure democracy, and no time to bicker, Mr. Lacey, republican, of Towa said he had supposed the last of the Randall demo- crats hud gone, bus ho was glad to se many democrats on the other side appealing for proteciion to their interests, Mr. Girosvenor, republican, of Ohio sail his stato was thivd in the production of coal, and that his district produced three-cighthbs of the production of slate.

Senator Turpie usked immediate consider- ation of the resolution. Senator Teller Objected. Senator Tellor objected vigorously and the resolution went over under the rules. A bill for an American commission at the Antwerp, Belgium, international exposition was presented by Senator Manderson, repuo- lican, of Neoraska. Senator Peffer's resolution, denying the authority of the secretary of the treasury to issue the bonds now contemplated, was taken up and Senator Stewart took the floor favoring the resolution. When Senator Stewart concluded the bill repealing the federal elections law was taken up. Senator Wilson, republican, of Towa ad- dressed the senate in opposition to the bill. At the end of Mr. Wilson's remarks, tor Cullom asked consent to take up the reso- lution of Senator Frye declaring against in- terference in Hawaiian affairs. Senator Chandler of the republican side wus quite willing to extend the time to Senator Cullom for that purpose allow the electio vill to &o *In fact,” said he, **1 will make even a broader proposition. 1 will suggest the bill repealing the cicctions law be allowed 10 o over until the 1st of Dacember next, in the absence of any recommendation by the president of the United States that this bill should pass. I infer the president of the United States would be very willing to let these laws remain on the statute books and be tested at another election. ‘Therefore, 1 suggest to the senate that the bill be al- lowed to go over until the first Monday of December.”” Senator € ver, objected, and Sen- ator Chandler theu yielded to Senator Cul- lom. The elcctions” bill being temporarily laid aside, the Illinois senator spoke on Mr. e's Huwaiian resolution of noninterfer- ence, Cullom's Sovere Critlcism. Tn his opening remarks Senator Cullom reviewed briefly the history of Haw and the incidents which led to the revolution of last year, occasioned, he asserted, by the queen when she attempted: to revoke the constitution of 1887. He spoke in sharp terms of this action and then directly at- tacked. the policy of the. administration, Abundant testimony, hie said, had been fur- nished upon every hand in controversion of the assumed theory of the president and the secretary of state and the reported declar: tion of Miuister Willis that the revolution was primarily incited and fostered by United States Mimster Stevens and by Captain Wiltze, who wus in command of tho Boston. That theory had been completely disproven, not only by the combinution of circumstan- tial and corroborative evidence, but by di rect and conclusive testimony. This test mony had been accepted by the mass of the fcan peeple as ample and sufticient, and it would be an imposition upon the pa- tience of the senata as well as upon the pub- lic to present it again ou this occasion. “But suppose the Americans had (which I deny) committed the acts alleged, what difference would that make as rezards Mr. Cleveland’s act 1 atiempting to recrown Mus, Dominis?

Acting unc er instruccions this Amer spy per- formed his duty by frequent secret reports to the secretary of the state as to what he found and what he did, which included the singular incident of pulling down the Ameri- can flag. “A distinguished American issued the or- dar: ‘Ifany man pull down the American flag shoot him on the spot.’ Ata later duy, by the order if I mistake not of Gen- eral Butlel New Orleans, one man w s shot for the same act for which another now receives tho thanks of the executive of the United States. “Another event in revolutionary histor has a certain parallel to the story of the prosident’s detective in Hawail. Some- thing over 100 years ago u British ofilcer of undoubted character and reputation was selected us the special commissioner of his government to act the part of what would conplete the betrayal of West Point and other American forts into the hands of the British. Major Andre, the distinguished spy, was lumn-um.m-u. and paid the penalty ife, ever may be said of deserting our flag in Monolulu that was only humiliating to Americans and o self-inflicting disgraco to this administration. But the sendiug of an American spy into Hawaii with creden- tials to the head of the recognized govern- ment addvessed: “My groat and good friend,” for the simplé purpose of plotting and negotiating with Mrs. Dominis, then an enemy of the government, and secrotly and stealthily endeavoring to avrange for her re euthronement upon the ruins of the tempor- ary or provisionai government, was such an offonsive act that the provisional govern- ment would have been fully justified, undor the rules of war in declaving him a public enemy and treating him accordingly. What Blount Was Lald Open To, “In the United States treason consists in fing war _ogainst the government or in adliering to its enemlies, giving them aid and comfort. What was Blount in his relation to Hawali? Neither more or less than public enemy. Personally I am very glad to see the exparamouns here in Washington, walking safely about the capitol, but I mu confess thore would have boen o good deal of grim justico i the act of the Hawaiian government had caused his trial, either by thecivil aathorities or by court martiul at Honolulu, #s would have been done by any other government. Just look au it. Purporting to be an ambassador and ac- credited 1o o recognized government, his ret instiuctions not even made known to this sonato, if oboyed by him pat him in the atutude in fact and in effect of the most despicable offenders ust international propeietica. Teae, his offenso was tuat of s superiors merely, but the punishment is 1o the agent who is caught in the act. Major Andre suffered death.

The American pulpit of today, however, is strong and influential enough to dispense with the peculiar methods which Mr. Talmage has adopted.” The Standard says that he is without a serious vival in his peculiar line of orator and adds that when he retires from tho ' ernucle pulpit it will be a difticult thing to ce him, RESCUED BY DHE PAVONIA, Crew of a Wrecked Amerlean Schooner Pickoa Up T'he British steamer Developments o Brazilian ‘Troubles in Their Copyrighted, 1824, by the Assocuated Press.] Times tomorrow will publish tie following cable dispateh, dated Rio de Janeiro, January 20, via Monte- Since the arrival of the Aquidaban, the in- been gaining ground steadily. @ to be more contident and public opinlon ashore 18 becoming more favorable 3 The people condemn se- verely the action of the government in not adopting decisive measures.
